I have visited the Arboretum from its beginnings and have seen it grow over the years as I am lucky enough to live nearby. A day can be spent there seeing all the beautiful memorials and relaxing in the restaurant. Good idea to use one of the buggy tours or comfy shoes.

Lovely location. Beautifully kept . Dedicated to all who gave their lives in Defence of Our Country, irrespective of Rank or Colour. Plenty of Memorials dedicated to the various Services that served during the wars. Very nice spacious Restaurant serving a good selection of food. It is a very large site.

Was amazed at the size of this. A thought provoking place to meander around, loved walking along the river. It was extremely busy on the Saturday we visited, restaurant was a little overrun, and didn't have much gluten free for one of us. Shop had some nice merchandise.

A lovely quiet, peaceful place.
The grounds are very well kept and they are extending the visitor centre at the moment which is looking very impressive.
There is also a restaurant where we had a lovely meal but you can also have snacks. Would recommend the roast dinner.

This memorial to those who have fallen in war. There are so many tributes and we were glad to go on a buggy tour with a most helpful, friendly and knowledgeable guide, who explained the different tributes. It is very modern and quite stark. The large restaurant was welcome on a very cold day!

We visited on a cold, sunny February day. Friendly and very helpful volunteers.The buggy ride was excellent and very informative. A very thought provoking day out.
The restaurant was lovely too, good food and value for money. The afternoon tea was delicious.
Would highly recommend a visit

Really great destination. Very well kept sprawling grounds, moving memorials. Excellent clean facilities. Great cafe / restaurant. Kids play grounds, craft activities and trails are really great too. Staff couldn't do enough to help, all with friendly smiles and welcomes. Highly recommended.

A memorial site for fallen war heroes. Wonderfully landscaped area. If you are in the area, it is definitely worth visiting this place. It will take 2-4 hours to walk around the area. We will also find a Polish accent.

Picnic area: There is a café and a restaurant on site. There is also a souvenir shop

Visited for the Remembrance Service on the 13th November. The service itself was very poignant and I’m so glad that this year I visited here. I found it quite emotional, humbling and a wonderful place to reflect and pay my respects to the fallen.
Lunch in the restaurant was very good before a walk around the beautiful gardens.

Rode on the train as the area is so vast we couldn't cover it all. Free to get in but charge for parking. A coffee bar and restaurant reasonably priced. A lot of staff around to answer any queries you may have. My second visit and will return again.
